After you've received the printed color catalog, open the digital catalog in your favorite graphics software and use your color picker tool on the color block that represents the printed color of your choice. As a result of our workflow consistency, if you use the RGB color values identified by the color picker, you'll receive a printed product with your selected color*.
This catalog contains almost 1,500 colors from the range of millions of colors that can be printed. By adjusting the RGB values of the color selected you'll easily be able to adjust the color, darker, lighter, more or less saturated, or in any way you desire.
If you're familiar with ICC, Lab, RGB, DeltaE, fabric profiling, etc. and would like more details on how you can color match the products you order from FabricSmiths, please send us an email with your questions.
